In a letter to House Natural Resources Committee Chairman Doc Hastings and Ranking Member Peter DeFazio, NRECA declared its support for H.R. 4315, the 21st Century Endangered Species Transparency Act. This bill updates the Endangered Species Act to make it more efficient, effective, and less costly, with the goal of finding a balance between species recovery and essential economic activity. NRECA urges Members of Congress to vote for H.R. 4315.
